Great to hear. Regarding the Gears excercise, I have a good friend in London who is a high school math teacher. He says he's always looking for ways to relate math to careers, so I told him about the (minor) mathematical anguish I went through with the gears to get them to be proportional and also to loop in the animation. If I had written the excercise when I was still in high school I'm sure all the math would have been a breeze! <g> Anyway, it's a good answer to the question "What do I need algebra for?" Michele
